Silver ring

Question:

Is there any weight limit on a silver ring for men?

Answer:

Wearing a silver ring, according to Sunnah, for men is permissible. As for its weight limit, the sahabah never asked about it. Therefore the conclusion is that there is no weight limit.

Dreamed of Going to Kaaba

Question:

Last night I saw a dream. I was in a mosque, most probably Haraam, and running towards Kaaba for the first time keeping my eyes on floor to raise my eyes when I reached at front of Kaaba so at that first glimpse of Kaaba in my life, I do dua for as much as possible. I was running on a 3rd or 4th floor of mosque. In a way I reached to a lift and I used it. Another person was either also in the lift or he joins me in the lift (I didn’t remember exactly). Lift comes down, cross 1 floor and then sticks in a way while reaching to next floor level. Its totally dark and I becomes nervous.

Answer:

Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

Mawlana Shaykh Hisham said about seeing the Ka’aba in dream:  “Seeing Ka`ba in the dream means you are seeing the House of Allah swt and it means you are seeing and knowing the manifestation of Allah’s Light in your heart; as the heart of a mu’min is the house of Allah, as the Prophet (s) said.”

The end of your dream points to some deficiencies that you need to overcome before reaching this station.

And Allah knows best.

Dream: Locking A Door

Dream:

I had a dream in which I saw myself locking a door. The door was unlocked and it appeared that someone was trying to enter it but didn’t. I locked the door and then woke up.

Thank You.

Interpretation:

Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

This dream can mean that you are going to marry (Insha’Allah) before someone else who wanted the same thing.

And Allah (awj) knows best.

Dream: Three dreams one night

Dream:

Assalamalaikum,

I was struggling in my heart with unbelievers at employment place. I was treacherously sad and wanted to run but couldn’t because I work there. Then a brightness formed in the back of office and I saw a jummah congregation for which my heart lifted superbly and rushed to them with great happiness. I needed to make wudu but didn’t-I believe was due to fear from the unbelievers. Placing myself to pray, the modernist Imam saw me with his heart that I was Syed and kept asking me to lead the prayer and I was refusing out of shyness to which I finally conceded. I approached to the front to lead prayer and the hate of the unbelievers was strongly focused on me but nevertheless I started jummah prayer avoiding the unbelievers to disrupt me, avoiding eye contact with them. I awoke before completing prayer.

Interpretation:

Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:

Wa `alaykumu s-salāmu wa rahmatu l-lāhi wa barakātuh,

This dream shows the struggle within yourself: between the bad manners of your ego and your soul. The imam represent the importance of taking the hand of a Murshid to win this battle.

And Allah knows best.

Permission for seperate dhikr

Question:

ASSALAM-O-ALAKIKUM,

I  do zikr alone in my room. I just took bayah this day. Before bayah, I do silasla Qadria dhikr, but now I’m confused…

I don’t know the Naqshbandi dhikr. Shall I continue Qadriya dhikr or I have to do Naqshbandi dhikr?

Please give me permission on any of it which you think better for me.

Thank you.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

Try to join the group dhikr in your area so that you can learn to read the khatm.

Spirtual Power of the Quran

Question:

As-Salamu-Alaykum,

I want to know is it possible and if so how can a person reach the level of the person who had knowledge of the scripture at time of Prophet Sulayman (AS); who brought the throne at the blink of the eye. How can we all gain the spiritual power of the holy Quran? How can we train with the Quran. JazakAllah. Please forgive my lack of adab.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

Asking for power, miracles, high levels etc. is the mark of beginners who are not ready for responsibility and this is all of us. Awliya only ask for a good end and it is up to Allah Most High to decide their responsibilities here and hereafter.
